This high energy little lady is quite the looker. With her beautiful tricolor coat, and big satellite dish ears she is cute as can be. Mariah is a somewhat unique mix of Collie, German Shepherd, and Husky. Although it is hard to say, we think Mariah may end up being around 40lbs when she is full grown which would match the size of the mother dog. Mariah has come to PDR along with her siblings after being discarded by a puppy mill. From the moment she walked into her foster home she has been all silliness and sass! She is an extremely personable pup and has warmed up immediately to all the people she has met . She is an energy-packed puppy who loves to zoom around and wrestle with her foster siblings. Like a typical puppy, Mariah is currently teething so EVERYTHING goes in her mouth. Her future forever family will need to keep a close eye on her as he continues to learn what is safe for chewing and what is not. So far Mariah is showing herself to be quite a smart little pup and is picking up on the routine of day to day life quite quickly. She has been learning about crate training, and spends her evenings and times when her foster family is out of the house in her crate. While she is quite calm sleeping in her crate at night she does still take a few minutes to settle while being crated. Crate training is an excellent tool to keep puppies safe when they are unattended and to help them develop a sense of independence while not with their “pack”. Mariah has had a visit with the vet and has been given her puppy vaccinations, microchipped and has been treated for fleas/ticks/intestinal parasites. It was noted by the PDR vets that she has a fairly significant overbite that is not causing her any major issues at this time. She is quite young her jaw will continue to adjust as she grows, however it should be on her future family’s radar as her vet will need to monitor her teeth alignment once she is full grown if the overbite remains. As far as non-medical needs go she has shown to be tolerant of grooming such as baths and nail cuttings without much if any fussing at all. Like most puppies this silly girl loves to play hard! She loves playing tug of war and running around the house chasing her foster siblings or fetching toys. She is especially cute playing fetch as she likes to bound like a cat pouncing on her toys. Her foster family is working on teaching her how to relax as well as play politely, as this is a skill that puppies develop over time. When she is finally tuckered out and sits still she loves a good cuddle with her foster humans and doggy siblings. Mariah has been learning to walk on leash, and has started taking small walks outside through the neighborhood. She is also working on her house training, which, as a puppy, is a work in progress that requires consistency from her humans and lots of patience. Her forever family should know that puppies need to be taken outside for bathroom breaks very regularly when they are small and will not be able to hold it for an 8hr work day. Currently she can only hold it during the day/overnight for a max of 3 to 4 hrs so her forever family will need to be able to accommodate a puppy schedule. She is also still waking up once in the night for a potty break. We are looking for families that are fully aware of the time commitment of a puppy and the work involved. Puppies are a total joy and bring so much love and happiness into a home, but you cannot underestimate the work and time involved in raising a puppy properly. Mariah would do best in a home with a fenced in yard where she can safely run around and can be supervised outdoors at all times while she’s still young. She would do best with one to two good walks a day (shorter ones while young), and will grow into a very active dog that would need longer activities and hikes. She is going to be a very energetic dog that requires a lot of fast paced exercise when older. She will not be suitable for those who can only accommodate a short, slower paced walk, her people need to be active and outdoorsy who will take her on long walks, hikes, runs etc. Although she may not grow to be very big, she will be very athletic and very active and only those who are currently very active and outdoorsy people should consider this cute puppy. Mariah has been showing us just what a sweet fun girl she can be.! She is quite smart but also has a lot of opinions on what she likes to do! She can be quite the vocal little lady, which is quite common for the husky breed. Fun fact: she was named Mariah both because she was a Christmas intake, and her ability to sustain a high note! Because of this we do not recommend that he go to a forever home in an apartment or condo, but instead will need a detached home. She will need a family that understands how important boundaries are for puppies, even when she voices her disagreement. Mariah has been very well behaved with the other dogs that she has met, and so far has not shown any interest in small animals outside. She has not been tested with cats. We think she would do well with an older male dog sibling to show her the ropes, but also would do great as a solo dog in a home. Because of her age, she needs a family with children 7 years of age or older who can handle puppy antics, be careful to close doors, and understand that sometimes hands look like toys when playing and can be nipped. Mariah has been a sweet and silly puppy since she walked through the door, and her foster family thinks she is quite the catch. It has been a riot watching her bounce around the snow like a bunny, and enthusiastically discover the world around her. Her excitement and enthusiasm is sure to bring endless joy to the family that gets to experience the adventures of life with her.
